# Shot Pattern vs Range Reps

The clearest difference is rating: Shot Pattern at 4.8 against Range Reps's 4.0. Shot Pattern also leads on update cadence (every 3 days vs every 2 weeks) and ratings volume (2.1K vs 1). Range Reps's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 67%). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Shot Pattern sells 7 in-app purchases, starting at $11.99 per month and Range Reps sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Shot Pattern holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Shot Pattern has 2.1K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 67% of Shot Pattern's written reviews are positive against 100% of Range Reps's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Shot Pattern ships an update every 3 days, Range Reps every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 27, 2026 and October 15, 2026 respectively.
